Malian soldiers patrol aboard a vehicle mounted with a machine gun in a street of Diabaly (400 km north of the capital Bamako) on January 26, 2013. French-led Malian troops recaptured the Islamist stronghold of Gao, the biggest town in northern Mali, and troops from Niger and Chad "will now take up the baton," the French defence ministry said.
